It's Easter sunday! Whoo! Time to rejoice((:
It's been so long since I last attended mass and my 1st one in a long time was Good Friday. Well, I feel closer to the faith again although I didn't actually drift from my my faith ;p
I just got my hair cut today. That lady messed it up)): My face looks huge now cos she kept thinning it. Argh, of all, I hate thinning my hair the most. Yes, I know I have a head full of hair and I shouldn't worry about have hair shortage and going to beijing101 or place like that in the near future but that doesn't give her the right to thin my hair till it's like.... I'm so pissed I can't even think a word this instant. My Easter haircut. I feel obligated to be happy because of the word 'easter'.
Am I ready to let go???? I'll miss them so much although I know I'll always see them cos their room is just beside mine. I'll miss everything.

I'M BACK! Yes, I'm back and I've only got 1 word: JET-LAG. US was really fun , all the shopping, theme parks and just walking around sight-seeing with my family. Spending the whole day just negotiating and going through the procedures to buy a piece of land in Las Vegas from one of their condominiums. That wasn't really fun, but it was interesting to see their presentations. And 1 thing I'll never forget about my trip to US. I lost my Pierre Cardin wallet containing over USD$100 in Universal Studios. All in all, I enjoyed my trip.
However, I missed SG just as much. Missed the food ( yea, it was fast food practically everyday). Missed SPCT girls, had my watch set at SG's time and knew when they were rowing in the afternoon when I was having my dinner and getting ready to sleep. I missed Keith the most. It was horribly agonising.
And I've got really bad news that I'm gonna have to tell the girls. Soon. I can't bear to but I have to.

Its been a really peculiar day for me. 1st thing I woke up to in the morning was this message " Faith, I'm so sorry but I wish to take the captain's post from you. Can you be my vice captain? " I almost got a heart attack when I saw that. What a way to start my day.
I'm sorry too cause I'm gonna retain my post as president and captain of the wakeboarding club. Even if you're willing to fight for it, so am I. A voting session for another selection of the captain will be held. Between the both of us.
U know what this means...IT MEANS WAR!!!!! hahahahas. jkjk, to think I'm still joking about this. But really I'm serious about my post.
And while I was in the bus from hougang mall back to my place, I saw melvin. My secondary school friends should know him. That kinda retarded guy? Always clapping his hands and talking to himself? Yea, that's him. He started telling me that 'Faith is my wife'. Thought it was kinda funny at 1st but when he got more persistant and started making kissy faces at me, I got really freaked out. Luckily Keith was there. Thanks Keith. Shouldn't have gotten angry with you. But other than that, the day was fun! Went gymming and swimming with keith at my place! And did some packing for my trip tomorrow.Gonna board the morning flight tomorrow. 8am! That's super early and that means that I've to sleep early but I ain't going to! :p
I'll miss Keith, and Clauds and Joanne and Yanli and Pat and loads more people. But it'll be good that I have a short break to get rid of all these stress. (:

Stress piling up, and no, it's not because of school work. Rather because of Wakeboarding. 2 days into my new post and I get all this crap. Yes, I know. Meeting's important but how do u expect me to go for the meeting when it'll be held in the evening when I have a curfew and that u've told us about the meeting like 1 week before I'm leaving for US? It's simply impossible. I'll not be free the whole of tuesday cos I have to pack my stuff for the holiday and for today, I was just in school to attend the enrollment briefing and collect the new equipment coming in. It won't last later than 2. A confirmed answer should be given to me so I know what I'm waiting for and that I know that I'm not waiting for nothing lest you should cancel it at the last minute. I have my own stuff to tend to and a banner to create for the school too.
Maggie,
I don't believe that it is a f**ked up club. Maybe we have a few communication misunderstandings but it's common. I think it is quiting the club just because of this is an insensible act. Come on, It's expected that we'll rarely have time to meet considering its a last minute notice. I think you'll be an asset to the club. Really. U have initiative and are enthusiastic. I can see that u've also done a lot for the club but its no point letting this problem get in the way.
If the matter is so so so important, U can always send it to me 1st or talk about it on the phone 1st and we'll meet another day to discuss futher about it. That way, we'll all have that time to think about it too. Isn't that better?
Yes, I know its expensive to wakeboard without the subsidies but the school is doing its utmost best to help us. They bought 2 new boards, bindings, 4 lifevests, 4 helmets and 2 board protectors for us too. And they also thought of biying a our club a boat and, hire a driver and instructor for us. It's totally FREE! Isn't that better than subsidies when we still have to pay? I know, riding at Kallang is stil the best cos its the competition ground. But we'll always go back there when its nearing competition dates. That's really the best for the club. For travelling wise, west coast isn't really far from your place. Kallang's further for u. If I from Hougang doesn't mind going there, then I really don't see your problem with travelling.
Quitting the club may just be on impulse. Think about it. I know u'll make the best choice. If you really wanna quit, I can't do anything about it.

Finally, I'm done with the school's banner for their enrollment. BODY(sports) Kinda messy though. And I've got enough of photoshop! Used to be my favourite hobby, now its not. Using the magic wand tool, magnetic lasso. Enough! Which should I choose? Wakeboarding or canoeing?
Being president and team captain, I shouldn't be slacking off anymore from Wakeboarding. I'll just complete national champs and SP champs and take a break from canoeing. Tiring as it may be, I just can't bear to quit. The friends that I've made there, I doubt I can find any other friends like them in Poly. Poly sucks! Now Ive gotta train my butt off for wakeboard cos I've become worse! Didn't even dare to do my 360. Wth.
************************************
And I dun get why the newspapers are dedicating so many pages just to 1 guy: Mas Selamat. I mean, you guys to seem like a efficient department right? Its not like our whole lives revolve about Mas Selamat. Personally, I already have got enough of reading about him lest seeing his pictures everywhere. Bustops, buses, MRTS, toilets. That is enough. I see no need to keep mentioning him in the press. Is Singapore an effective country? On the whole, there would be a big YES. But certain departments just don't match up to that standard? People would argue: hey, they're just as effective." But I beg to differ. If they were so effective, how on earth did Mas Selamat manage to escape? Okays. People do make mistakes, the guard's still human after all. But to really escape, Mas has to get through various guards or officials to and he managed to? Have all the guards decided to take a holiday at that point of time? I think not. Efficient? Not really.
